- As the project/repository evolves over time (new features getting added, bugs being fixed), commit messages are the place where one can see what was changed and how.
Pull Request

- A pull can follow any commits, even if the code is unfinished
- GitLab automatically indicates to pull the request.
- Log files record the approval of the merge
Pull Request

- Developers can change source files in a branch but the changes are not released until
- They are committed
- A pull command is issued
- Then the code is merged into the master code.
